This newly refurbished mid-terrace on Middleton Street offers practical, move-in ready accommodation well suited to first-time buyers or landlords seeking a compact city-centre property. The accommodation includes a front reception room, kitchen-diner, modern bathroom and two comfortable first-floor bedrooms. Double glazing and mains gas central heating have been installed throughout.
Location is a clear strength: a five-minute walk to the main train station and close to a wide range of local shops, cafés and services. The house is chain-free and freehold, making the purchase process simpler for buyers who need a quick completion.
Buyers should be aware the property sits in a very deprived area with above-average local crime and a small plot size. The original solid brick walls are uninsulated (assumed), typical of houses built c.1900–1929, and while the interior is refurbished, the building will retain character-related limitations such as thinner walls and modest room proportions. Outdoor space is limited to a small forecourt and an enclosed rear yard.
Overall this is a low-cost, low-maintenance entry into Darlington’s central market — convenient, economical and ready to occupy or let immediately. It suits purchasers prioritising transport links and affordability over large gardens or spacious rooms.
